[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1535510, member: 18945"] That would be pretty dang close guess for sure, if not right on the nail. I'd add 'wet' to that 'really cold weather' part, especially if it's wind driven rain, and the slow drizzle type. Cattle can stand out in the cold for a long time. Can stand out in the rain a long time, or the wind. Add any 2 or 3 of them together, and it's really hard on them down here, as they don't grow the same kind of winter hair coat northern cattle do and our winters aren't long enough for them to do much acclimatizing to it either. IOW, each time it's cold wet, nasty, give 'em xtra cubes before dark. (you Northerners can stop laughing now) [/QUOTE]
